Here's your sign...

Conjuctivitis. Yup. New illness to add to the list of Easton sickies. I noticed the green goop and the crusties yesterday. Blah. My eyes feel sticky. So I think I will just treat all of us with the eye drops just. in. case.

But, why is it I had to talk to two stupid people in one day? I called the doctor I don't want to see anymore, out of convenience since I haven't become patients of anyone else. We talked over the phone. He told me he would call in a prescription and to only put one drop of medicine in one of Easton's eyes, to check for irritation or blurred vision. OK. Stop right there. Are you being serious? You think my 10.5 month old could tell me he has blurred vision!!?? WOW that would be awesome if he could communicate he has blurred vision so that way, I can make sure I stop giving him the drops. He would be a baby genius! I can see it now, "Mom, about 10 minutes after giving me the eye drop in my left eye, it started getting blurry, and now I am having trouble seeing out of it. Please discontinue use."

Just hours later, when I picked up the prescription, the pharmacist came over to give me info on the meds. Can you believe he actually told me to make sure I put the drops in his eyes when they are open. Because you know, for a second I was actually thinking about putting the drops on his eyelids when he was sleeping. Because. That would make so much more sense!

Maybe it was my mood yesterday. But come on people, here's your sign!
